Kenyan Arsenal fan hangs himself after Man Utd defeat
NAIROBI, May 6 (Reuters) - An Arsenal fan in soccer-mad Kenya hanged himself wearing his beloved team's shirt after their defeat to Manchester United in the Champions League. Like elsewhere across Africa, Kenyans pack bars for English Premier League and Champions League matches, especially those involving Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool. Suleiman Omondi, 29, was found hanged at his home in a middle-class Nairobi estate shortly after leaving distraught from the pub where he had watched Arsenal lose 3-1 in their Champions League semi-final at the Emirates on Tuesday. "He took some drinks and broke down in tears within the final minutes of the match," a fellow bar patron, who asked not to be named, told Reuters. Police said they were called to Omondi's house on Wednesday morning. "What we are gathering is this suicide is related to the Arsenal and Manchester match," local Embakasi area police chief David Bunei told reporters. Bar attendants said they had to intervene after Omondi lunged at a man who suggested Arsenal would not recover from conceding two early goals. They also lost the first leg 1-0. Brawls are common in Kenya during football matches and there have been other related suicides reported in the past. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/feedarticle/8492582 |

What a cracking goal from Essien!

Barcelona will score that away goal, be shocking if they don't score!
If Chelsea go through to the final they will just flop against Man Utd.. :sleep::sleep::sleep::sleep: |
The winner of this match will win the Champions League. Still want Barca to win though.
